Aylward Academy is first and foremost an inclusive 11-19 community school and proud to serve the communities around Enfield. Over the last 3 years our school has been transformed and we start September 2017 looking to continued success.

The academy is committed to exacting high standards and developing outstanding learning with staff and students. Students’ success lies at the heart of everything we do. Aylward is a warm and welcoming academy where genuinely every person matters. Seeing the potential in every young person and encouraging exceptional progress is at the centre of our approach. Recognising and developing students’ personal strengths and skills is very important to us – the quality of our support and care is extremely high and as a strongly inclusive school it is our belief that aspiration is for all.

We are a successful department and we can offer:

Partnership with a lead teacher – for weekly mentor meetings with NQT’s and peer coaching with more experienced staff adapting to joining Aylward Academy..

Opportunities to apply for SLT internship programmes designed to give you further whole school leadership experience.

Our students are our priority in science; this is shown through having a tailored enrichment programme, wide ranging revision and support programmes including paid Saturday and Holiday revision sessions which we volunteer for.

The CPD at Aylward is excellent, there is a wide range of personalised opportunities to develop your practice and further develop your career. As a team we support and challenge each other through meetings, peer observation, mentoring and team planning.

Opportunities to join a career development programme in line with your professional development – ie Ambition School Leadership.

An opportunity to further develop excitingpartnerships with National Stem Centre and the National Institute of Physics.

As a team we pride ourselves on our team spirit, we regularly share good practice and collaboratively plan lessons.

This role is ideal for those seeking to broaden their experience and has arisen due to restructuring and expansion within the Science Faculty. The Science Faculty was created with the merger of the evolving Technology department with a well-established Science department. The Faculty has been making good progress in pupil attainment over a four year period since the school became an Academy.

You will be joining a dynamic team of committed teachers with 5 Technicians who are dedicated to providing the best possible opportunities to our students. We are a very successful Faculty because we put what is best for our students at the heart of our entire decision making which is why there has been steady progress in pupil attainment.

Physics has been a popular subject at Aylward with 15 students on the AS Physics course this year. There have been great opportunities afforded to our physicists such as the annual residential to CERN and countless STEM opportunities.
